Super Easy Peach Dump Cake Recipe

If you’ve never tried making dump cake before, it’s going to change your life! Because my family loves peach cobbler, I’ve been on the hunt for an easy way to make it. Just like the name suggests, all you have to do is dump all of the ingredients into a casserole dish and throw it in the oven! The end result is soft, ooey-gooey, and filled with peachy flavor. The texture is somewhere between a cake and a cobbler. I love the combination of warm peaches and buttery crumble surrounding it. Your tastebuds will thank you! Peach dump cake is delicious served straight out of the pan or (in my personal opinion) even better when you serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! The cake itself is so warm and ooey gooey, the ice cream just melts beautifully on top. This is such a great dessert, no one will know it only took 10 minutes to throw it together! Dump cakes are a game-changer and perfect for you busy moms out there. You should try my apple and pumpkin dump cake recipes next!

How to Make Peach Dump Cake

I love this recipe because it only takes a few minutes to whip up, then it’s hands-off while it bakes! Once you give it a try and see how easy it is to make, you’re going to want this tasty dessert all the time. The great thing is, you can switch out the fruit for whatever you have on hand, too! It’s definitely a staple to have in your recipe collection.

Using Different Kinds of Peaches: You may use peaches in light syrup or juice, though the result may be a little bit softer. You may also substitute the peaches for fresh peaches if desired. Use about 3 whole peaches and toss them with ⅓ cup of granulated sugar and ¼ cup of water to make up for the lack of syrup.Change Cake Type: Feel free to use white cake mix instead of yellow cake mix, if you’d like.Add Nuts: Adding chopped pecans or walnuts to your peach dump cake is a great way to add extra flavor and texture!Use a Dutch Oven: This recipe is great for baking while camping! Line a dutch oven with foil for easy clean-up, add your ingredients as directed in the recipe card (using butter pats may be easiest for less prep), then place the dutch oven on top of 10-12 hot coals. Place the lid on top and add 8-10 hot coals on top. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the top of the cake is golden brown and the edges are bubbly.

In the Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days. You can serve it as-is or pop it in the microwave for 15-second intervals until warm and gooey.
